TRS3238ECDB Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The Texas Instruments TRS3238ECDB is a multichannel RS-232 line driver and receiver IC designed for various applications including battery-powered systems, PDAs, notebooks, and modems. It operates from a single 3V to 5.5V supply, offering flexibility for different power requirements.

 

This transceiver integrates five line drivers and three line receivers, supporting full-duplex communication at data rates up to 400kbps. It meets or exceeds the requirements of TIA/EIA-232-F and ITU v.28 standards. The device also includes ±15kV ESD protection on the driver output and receiver input terminals using the Human-Body Model (HBM).

 

Key features include an auto-powerdown plus feature for flexible power-down modes and low standby current. The TRS3238ECDB is supplied in a 28-SSOP package and is designed for surface mounting. It requires four external capacitors for its dual charge-pump circuit.

 

Applications for the TRS3238ECDB include portable computing devices, handheld equipment, and printers where a reliable RS-232 interface is needed. Its robust ESD protection and wide operating voltage range make it suitable for demanding environments.
